I grew up poor as well. Thankfully, my mother's work paid off by the time I was a teenager and we moved up to middle-class.

I'm sure you're harboring legitimate resentment, but your rant against armchair philanthropists seems equally self-righteous, as though poverty is a badge of honor. I don't say that to be mean or white-knight you, it's just how it comes across. It makes it worse that you challenge people to down vote you.

I don't give a shit anymore. This place is a goddam joke most of the time. Bunch of white-bread kids thinking they know shit from shinola.

White-bread? Please, that's not nearly organic, biological and ecological enough. I only eat $16 bread made in some unspecified third world country and distributed by a local multinational.

White-bread? No way man, whole grain wheat. Each grain was produced on its own exclusive acre field.
